Using AN example from either Biofuels, Prebiotics or Detergents, explain how enzyme properties can be modified to generate products of societal value.
Enzymes are important in many biotechnological processes. Using AN example from either Biofuels, Prebiotics or Detergents, explain how enzyme properties can be modified to generate products of societal value.
Within your answer you should include:
• the use of enzymes in the production of your chosen example (biofuels, prebiotics or detergents).
• the function of an enzyme, and the catalytic mechanism of enzymes wherever applicable.
• the advantages that enzymes offer over traditional/industrial processes.
• the way in which enzymes can be used, or engineered to improve efficacy and cost effectiveness.
• Your answer should include labelled diagrams. Figures/diagrams must be your own – either computer-drawn or hand-drawn images.
remember that the example used has to be specific and explained very well ad with the above points.
